Your Forum Review
First Impressions & Appearance - (Out of 20)
My first time visiting your forums(prior to this review) I said to myself, I've seen that theme somewhere before - it's incredibly amazing. I love the theme, simple as that, the color are amazing, the layout - just about everything. Your logo stuck out to me, which is a very good thing, however you might want to make the logo just a tad larger. As I quickly skimmed through your forums, there weren't any empty forums, 2 members online, which are all in good aspects. Yes, you have a custom logo, but is that enough customization? In my opinion no. As I started to scrutinize, there was one thing that really bugged me, the forumicons. They look stretched out and just kill most of the aesthetic aspects of forums; they just don't go with the theme. Yes I realize it came with the theme. Few more customization and you'd have gotten a 20
😛.
(Scored 18/20)
Site Layout - (Out of 20)
Starting from the menu until the footer, I agreed completely with your layout. You have you normal menu items but also link to your rules & services. You start off with your site forums, then services forums and finally the general section - perfect lineup for a forum this age. I simply loved the brevity of your forums.

Statistics and Activity - (Out of 20)
Your forum is new, I didn't expect much but your stats still disappoint me a bit. Firstly, you have very unique services, great theme and of course an amazing creative forum name, you should be able to receive a bit more activity with ease. However, from personal experience, I do understand the standpoint of an admin of a new forum. You're doing good, you have quality posts and have the basics down, but try to do great.

Staff Moderation - (Out of 20)
Hmm, one admin. For a forum this age, I can't say it's a bad thing to get everything started and off the grounds before recruiting staff members. However, you should consider having at least one moderator to look after the forums and increase activity while you aren't around or online. Find someone reliable and like minded, don't just pickup anyone as a moderator because at this age, you need someone who will understand the forum and see forum the way you do.

Spelling/Grammar & Professionalism - (Out of 20)
You have very concise forum descriptions with perfect spelling and near perfect grammar. I should have mentioned this in the site layout, but you have two links to "RankUp" in your footer. Your posts show your forum's professionalism as well the gravity of RankUp Forums.
